본 논문에서는 카메라폰용 광학중(Optical zooming) 과 자동초점조절장치 (Auto Focusing, AF)에 쓰일 초음파모터를 제작하였다. 초음파모터의제작 및 시뮬레이션은 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ATILA 5.2.1 (Magsoft co.)를 사용하여 디자인설계에 따른 구동특성을 고찰하였고 제작된 초음파모터는 한쪽 면이 없는 사작형의 탄성체를 제작하였으며 탄성체의 양쪽 다리에 각각 압전체를 부착하였다. 또한 압전세라믹의 조성은 $0.9Pb(Zr_{0.51}Ti_{0.49})O_3-0.1Pb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{1/3}Sb_{1/3})O_3$의 조성으로 설계하였고 시편의 제조는 7-layer로 적층하였다. 제작된 압전세라믹의 치수는 6*2*0.35$mm^3$(길이*폭*두께)로 제작하였다 또한 탄성체의 외형치수는 10*10*2$mm^3$로 제작하였으며 두께를 각각 0.3[mm], 0.5[mm], 0.8[mm]으로 변화시키며 제작하였다. 두께가 0.8[mm]인경우 공진주파수는 60.5[kHz]를 나타내었으며 초음파모터의 압전세라믹에 인가전압이 증가함에 따라 회전속도와 모터에 흐르는 전류는 증가하였다. 인가전압이 40[Vpp] 일 때 회전속도는 206[rpm] 이며 소비전력은 0.3[W]로 제작된 시편은 카메라폰용 광학중 및 자동초점조절장치시스템 분야에 응용이 가능하다.

Recently, electronic equipments become smaller, more functional, and more complex than before. As these trends, MLC(multi-layer ceramic) circuit has been emerged to a promising technology in semiconductor inspection industry. Especially, multi-layer ceramic which is consisted of many fine-pitch multi-hole is used to produce a semiconductor inspection unit. The hole is processed by UV laser. But, working conditions are changed all the time. Therefore real time measurement of fine-pitch multi-hole is very important method for ensuring performance. In this paper we found the best method for illuminating and auto focusing. And, we verified our equipment.

Optical monitoring using the chromatic aberration of focusing optics is applied to auto-focus control in laser welding. The spectral transmittance of thermal radiation from a weld pool through an aperture depends on the wavelength of the spectral band and on the distance of the weld pool from the focusing optics. Its dependence has been used to monitor the focus shift in laser welding by measuring the spectral band signals filtered by the aperture. The difference between pulsed and continuous laser welding is analyzed. Furthermore, the dependence of the focus shift monitoring on the weld pool size variation is optimized to monitor the focus shift independently from the laser power change at the weld pool. The performance of the auto-focus control with chromatic filtering is presented for pulsed laser welding.

Recently, optical disk drives are increasingly demanded to have higher speed as well as high information density, especially for applications like CD ROM drives. To this end, improvement of their optical pickup structure and control is recognized the very challenging issue. In this paper, the pickup is first analytically modelled in a plane to describe its coupled auto-focusing and auto-tracking motions. Subsequently, the model is linearized and combined with actuator dynamics for the auto-focusing system. With its unmeasurable parameters being estimated based on experimental data, an approximate I-DOF linear model is obtained neglecting the coupling term. To design the high speed and robust positional servo controller realistic design specifications are addressed, and H control method is employed based on the approximate model. Finally, taking the pickup in a commerical high speed CD ROM drive as an example performance of the designed controller is verified through realtime experiments.

In this paper, we propose an auto-focusing algorithm which extracts a depth parameter by analyzing a selected part of a hologram, and we use experimental results to show that the algorithm is practical. First, we record a complex hologram using Optical Scanning Holography. Next we select some part of hologram and extract depth information through Gaussian low pass filtering, synthesizing a real-only hologram, power fringe-adjusted filtering and inverting to a new frequency axis. Finally, we reconstruct the hologram automatically using the extracted depth location.

This paper presents a circularly symmetric point spread function (PSF) estimation technique for a fully digital auto-focusing system. The proposed algorithm provides realistic, unsupervised PSF estimation by establishing the relationship between one-dimensional ideal step response and two-dimensional circularly symmetric PSF.

In this paper, the design and characteristics of a novel ultrasonic motor are investigated. Such a motor is appropriate far use in the optical zoom or auto focusing functions of the lens system in mobile phones. Its design and simulation of performances are carried out by FEM commercial software (ATILA). The shape of the motor is similar to a square without one side, on which an optical lens can be mounted. Two sheets of piezoelectric ceramics are adhered to both sides of two legs of the elastic body, respectively To drive the ultrasonic motor, the voltage is applied to two sheets of piezoelectric ceramics bonded to one leg. The rotation direction can be easily changed by switching the piezoelectric sheets bonded to the other leg, to which voltage is applied. A proto type of the motor is fabricated and its outer size is $10^*10^*2[mm3]$ including the camera lens of which the diameter is 7.5(mm). Its power consumption is about 0.3[W] and the speed of rotation is adjustable from 10 to 200[rpm] according to the applied voltage

This paper proposes a method for estimating isotropic out-of-focus blur and a fully digital auto-focusing based on a priori estimate set of PSFs. The proposed algorithm for identifying the isotropic PSF is performed by approximating an isotropic blur to a novel discrete PSF model and estimating the PSF model coefficients from degraded edges. After acquiring the set of PSFs by proposed PSF estimation algorithm the proposed fully digital auto-focusing system can restore out-of-focused images by two steps: i) selecting an optimal PSF and ii) restoring the out-of-focused image by digital image restoration.

In this paper we present a simple, efficient method for detecting the blurry photographs. Recently many digital cameras are equipped with various auto-focusing functions to help users take well-focused pictures as easily as possible. In addition, motion compensation devices are able to compensate motion causing blurriness in the images. However, digital pictures can be degraded by limited contrast, inappropriate exposure, imperfection of auto-focusing or motion compensating devices, unskillfulness of the photographers, and so on. In order to decide whether to process the images or not, or whether to delete them or not, reliable measure of image degradation to detect blurry images from sharp ones is needed. This paper presents a blurriness/sharpness measure, and demonstrates its feasibility by using extensive experiments. This method is fast, easy to implement and accurate. Regardless of the detection accuracy, the proposed measure in this paper is not demanding in computation time. Needless to say, this measure can be used for various imaging applications including auto-focusing and astigmatism correction.
